We’re wrapping up in NYC and after a week of much wining, dining, chatting, and wearing heels, I’m finally getting a (little) chance to rest …

As Kathryn worked it during appointments at the Soho House yesterday, I escaped with my dad to check out Naked City Man - a Weegee exhibit at the Steven Kasher gallery in Chelsea, and The Greatest Grid, an incredible exhibit at the Museum of the City of New York, which tells the story of Manhattan’s grid system.

I love NYC.

And tonight, my mom and I ordered from Bread and are watching the season finale of Downton Abbey. Some very welcome downtime!

While we’ve wrapped up market at the Soho House, we’re still showing FW12 at the office to select buyers through the week. For once the office is clean, beautiful, and brimming with fall jewels!

Ok, off to bed. A little rest this week before PARIS!
